Fish Curry with Canned Sardines

I am sure that you all would agree to life being a race now. We are all, either running after something or running for something. Even when cooking is your passion there are times when you look around for some easy to prepare meals that leave you satisfied at the dining table.

This fish curry with canned sardines is one such dish for me. It is ready in a jiffy and tastes rich and delightful. Don't hesitate to serve it with rice, the next time you run out of time. This will be so much better than the take-aways that you resorted to as a last minute option.
